Mega Boat Landing will feature more than just a boat ramp
The Berkeley County, SC boat landing formerly known as Atkins Landing will reopen soon as a much bigger, full-featured boat landing.
The Mega Boat Landing will span 15 acres on Santee Cooper’s lower lake. It will include six boat ramps, a dock protected by a 565-foot break wall, 185 boat trailer parking spaces, 185 single car parking spaces, emergency call stations, a 4200-square foot open-air event pavilion, two beaches, picnic shelters, public restrooms, electric power for hosting events, a walking trail, a playground and much more.
The total cost of the landing is about $10.5 million, and is being funded by numerous programs, including the Berkeley County Delegation “Water Recreation Funds,” accommodation tax funds, a US Fish and Wildlife Service grant from SCDNR, state budge appropriations, and help from Santee Cooper and other Berkeley County offices.
The official opening is set for June 12.
